FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY PARKING GARAGE Miami, FL Zyscovich designed a tripartite facade punctuated with fenestration and archways to minimize the sense of scale.

Zyscovich designed the garages with “nesting quadrants,” creating distinct mini-garages within the larger parking facilities to control traffic and provide parking for 300–500 cars for those attending special events without infringing on use by everyday students, faculty and employees.

BEZALEL ACADEMY OF ARTS & DESIGN Jerusalem, Israel The Zyscovich, Inc. plan was designed to generate a visible and accessible renaissance of creative activity in the heart of Jerusalem. From every point of the campus, outside and in, the life of the school is evident through glass facades that continuously transform the experience of the campus from theater to metaphoric cityscape to a museum of creative activity and urban interaction. The project’s architecture weaves together polarities of Judaism -- past and future, the concrete and the ethereal, shadow and light – by becoming, according to Jewish teaching, “a vessel that gives and receives light.”
